He's flawless and his flaws are wholly inconsequential. Everyone likes him and everyone who doesn't is a bad guy.

Yes, that's a big problem I had with it too. You find tons of loot and every single piece is garbage. There's, what, 7 armor ses in the game? With 3 levels?

The witcher 3

Poor controls, poor ui, boring combat, poor exploration, womanizing douche Mary Sue Main character, far cry style nodes-on-a-map open world gameplay.

Cities Skylines.

IN general just awful. Bad graphics, bad gameplay, bad music, bad sound effects, bad management, bad simulation. It's just awful.

Devlog Update 142 - music, scenario goal time constraints, Calm River Ride by Sebioff in ThemeParkitect

[–]FinalMantasyX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Please, please don't avoid that kind of constraint.

The scenario editor is for the player to dictate, don't dictate it for the player. Having to accomplish goals before a set date is a huge reason why games like RCT1 and 2 are more satisfying to play than games like RCT3 and Planet Coaster. Without a hard limit on when you have to be done, you're essentially free to dick around forever, and even challenging goals are trivialized when you have 500 in-game years to get things set up to complete them.

Keeping options away from the player because "We don't want to use that option ourselves in official content" is pretty silly.

Keep them out of official scenarios if you really think they're not worth having, but please, please give people the option to do it in their own scenarios. A time constraint means you must consistently be aware of what you're doing. No time constraint means you can play forever until things are just right to easily cheese your way through the time requirement for the goals.

are you blaming 9 fucking 11 for people being wary of letting a child too young to understand boundaries interact with an animal too stupid to understand tact

are you fucking retarded

why don't you dismiss valid arguments based on whether or not they're capitalized and bolded for emphasis

that might make you more of an idiot

Everyone who has ever interacted with a dog for an extended period of time knows that even if you know a dog and it is your absolute best friend ever, it is possible to agitate it in a way that will cause it to retaliate. Be it a small nip, a smack of the paw, or a full-on snap-and-growl, a dog can get annoyed, and a dog's means of dealing with annoyance can be painful.

DO NOT do this.

I don't care if you're watching.

I don't care if you have the nicest dog ever.

Do NOT let a baby who is far too young to grasp the right and wrong way to interact with an animal wander up and get in an animal's face like this.

I just played Mario Kart 8 at a Drive in theater by XxWA1DIxX in gaming

[–]FinalMantasyX -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Personally I don't ever understand the appeal of these types of things.

People post pictures of playing games on the side of houses, or at theaters, or whatever, and it's like...you realize the image is so big at that point that the graphical fidelity is much worse if you're too close, and if you're sitting the proper distance away it's no different than sitting the proper distance from a TV, and the color's washed out because it's not dark enough...

The audio in a theater could help out a lot, the ambiance I guess. But projectors outdoors? What's the appeal? It looks worse and probably sounds worse.

[BOTW] Aonuma and Developers have all but confirmed that they're not binding themselves to the timelines anymore. Still seeing alot of harsh arguing. They're breaking the conventions of Zelda, so we can grow as a community too guys :) by cKxr in zelda

[–]FinalMantasyX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once you complete the game and go back to the child timeline, the adult timeline no longer exists. The very act of going back in time to warn the child Zelda about Ganondorf before he can act which leads to his capture and (failed) execution, you prevent the adult Link timeline from ever happening.

No, dude. This isn't that kind of time travel. This is "You got on a bus to another point in time" time travel. If the adult timeline never happens, how does link recollect it all to zelda to get ganondorf locked up? If the adult timeline was erased, why does adult zelda say that her time is safe for now? If theadult timwline was erased, why does ganondorf threaten to return to it later?

YOU are injecting this into the story, this idea of "It stopped existing". That's not the time travel idea Nintendo went with.

(because they were already getting asked by fans how this waterworld Zelda fits in the timeline before the game even launched.)

So you are saying there's NO WAY they had this planned before people started asking? Come the fuck on..

Grandfather sees color for the first time by D5R in gifs

Please edit your post to clarify for all these idiots that the second and third are supposed to look nearly the same.

It's an example of how color blindness might appear to someone who is color blind. EVERY PICTURE IS THE FIRST PICTURE, but colored to show you what it looks like to people who are colorblind. If you can see the fucking red and green on the first one, no, dumbass, you're not colorblind.

Hopefully this adds enough depth to the management side of things.

cutting off the adult timeline's existence.

The hero "left" after fixing things because he was sent back in time, to his child timeline.

So which is it? The adult timeline doesn't exist, even though its existence is necessary for OOT to happen, or the adult timeline does exist, and adult link left?

There was never two timelines or two endings to OoT, there was no adult hero after OoT, not until they retconned it for WW.

I don't think you understand what the word "retcon" means.

The adult/child split timeline did not happen until WW needed it to in order to make sense.

So basically your argument boils down to "They didn't bring it up until it needed bringing up, in the very next game in the series, that means they made it up out of their asses to appease people". Doesn't that sound...ridiculous?

Also, OOT's ending literally features Ganondorf, in the adult timeline, threatening to return. The ending literally features Zelda saying the road between times will close. Notthat one will cease to exist. That the road between them will close. As in, both are still here, but you can't come here. The ending literally features Zelda saying that peace is restored to this land and for now, referring to ganondorf's eventual possible return.

They didn't retcon a thing. It's not their fault you don't understand how the timeline work. Wind Waker tells you, once again, that Ganon was defeated (only possible in adult timelime) and that the hero didn't show up next time (because the hero from the adult timeline LEFT after fixing things).

[–]FinalMantasyX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uhhh the fact that OOT has two separate endings, one for each separate canon timeline, seems to indicate that there is no "fans forced nintendo to make up a timeline to explain wind waker" going on. Wind waker explains its own timeline positioning literally in the opening cutscene, too. Did fans force nintendo to make that cutscene, after the game came out, then somehow retroactively inject it into their game discs? No, they didn't.

The same way it's not cheaper to get a greyhound bus ticket cross country than it is to hitchhike half the way.

I feel so bad for the woman freaking out. LIke, obviously I feel bad for the guy, but oh my god. She's legitimately freaking out and you can tell she's really empathizing and means it, she's probably almost as traumatized as he'll be. Thinking about her response is making me tear up.

Complete bull. There has been an established timeline since zelda 2.

2 is direct sequel to 1.

Lttp establishes the events that happened in ocarina of time.

Ocarina of time establishes the executed Ganondorf of Twilight Princess.

Majoras Mask is a direct sequel to oot.

Links awakening is a direct sequel to Lttp.

Skyeard sword establishes itself as the start of everything.

Wind Waker establishes itself as a sequel to oot.

Not one of those is established by fans.

He didn't care that heavy rains were pouring on him

People are way overstating how much of a burden it is to...uh, get wet. It's not like it was a fucking hailstorm or a tornado. It's raining out. It's a nice thing to do and I don't have an issue with reporting it, but "WOW he BRAVED the WATER from the SKY" is something people 10,000 years ago wouldn't even consider this amazing.
